About
Athens Tower
Athens Tower sits at the junction of Athinas and Ermou, two of the city's busiest streets, putting you within a short walk of Syntagma Square, Monastiraki, and the Plaka neighbourhood. The metro station is right at the doorstep, making the Acropolis and the rest of the city easy to reach without a car.
The hotel pairs a 24-hour reception and security with a rooftop bar that guests consistently praise for its skyline views. Rooms are modern and several categories – from the Junior Suite to the Family Suite – are set up for those travelling with children. A restaurant, snack bar, and coffee shop cover dining without leaving the building.

Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Dining gets mixed reviews — The dining category scores only 5/10, suggesting the food and beverage offerings don't match the rest of the stay. The rooftop bar is praised, but the restaurant experience may be less consistent.
- Rooms and cleanliness rated lower than location — While rooms are described as modern and clean, the 'Rooms and cleanliness' category sits at 7/10 – the lowest alongside dining. Some guests may find the rooms basic for the price.
- No pets allowed — If you're travelling with a dog or cat, this isn't the place – the policy is strictly no pets.
